I'm a working man


Hey Gang,

I am spreading the news. I got a job! I know your all saying, "ABOUT TIME YOU LAZY BUM." I couldn't agree more with you. I am now employed with the Springfield Gannett. Gannett owns about 85 newspapers and 20 something TV stations. So I have lots of room for growth in this company.

My official title is "Credit Specialist". I bet your asking yourself what does that mean. Well it means I am working with the collections department. I run credit checks on people who have outstanding debt with the company. We set up payment plans to help them get out of debt and also stay our customer. As Brother H always said, "It's easier to keep a customer than to get new ones." These people who are Advertising through the different media Gannett offers nation wide. So I get to work with my degree as well as learn a lot of new things.

Anyway, I am happy. It was up at 4:30 am today because I am so excited to start my new job. I think I am really going to like my new boss. She seems really cool. I will keep you all updated!!
